Solution Steps

Step 1: Analyze the question

The question asks about the symbolic meaning of the Berlin Wall's dismantling in terms of changes in Europe.

Step 2: Evaluate the options
  • Option 1: Incorrect. The dismantling of a wall represents the _removal_ of a physical barrier, not the construction of new ones.
  • Option 2: Correct. The Berlin Wall was both a physical and ideological barrier separating East and West Berlin, and Germany as a whole. Its removal symbolized the reunification of Germany and lessening of tensions between Eastern and Western Europe.
  • Option 3: Incorrect. While military alliances shifted and evolved after the Cold War, the dismantling of the Berlin Wall was not a direct symbol of the _strengthening_ of military alliances.

Final Answer:

It signified the removal of both physical and ideological divisions.
